-Verse-
C			G		D		     G
God, You are my fortress, my de-fense that never fails
      C			G		    D	    G		
My helper when I’m sinking and the enemy prevails.
   C		      G		D		        Em
Alone we are so helpless against our ancient foe
	C		     G		      Am	D	G	
And though he was de-feated he still seeks to work us woe.

-Chorus-
	       C		       D		        G
You’re my ever present help in time of trouble

There is hope in knowing You are always with me.
	    CM7	       D		       G
There is comfort in Your never ending love.

-Verse-
Your Word is our protection against all earthly powers
You bless us through Your Spirit for Your love and strength are ours.
Lord, you give us courage when our body they may kill.
Your Kingdom is forever and Your word abideth still.

-Chorus-
You’re my ever present help in time of trouble
You’re my never ending source of strength and power
There is hope in knowing You are always with me.
There is comfort in Your never ending love.
